Honda CRV Oct 05, 2007
Hi guys

I have booked a Honda CRV White Rvsi due for delivery within a few weeks.

Have I done the right thing? I liked the drive, I like the safety and options and definatley like the re-sale value.

What are your opinions on this car...am I making a mistake?! Could I have done better with the cash spent on this car?

Need re-assurance! :lol:

As long as you don't expect to conquer some dunes, you will be very happy with the car.

I dont ever have the time to venture out into the Dunes... But if we ever decided to, I would just rent a 4x4 for the day...even If I owned a proper 4x4, I wouldnt risk it...

I guess I will go with the CRV. It has very good safety features for that price range...and it doesnt cost an arm or a leg to maintain...

the hyundai tucson offers the same specs i think on a lower price. but the crv is known for quality work so i am sure in the long term it pays for itself. nice body too.

Its certainly a great looking car and Ive driven one myself and loved the ride. Personally though I would have shelled out that tiny bit more cash and bought a Ford Explorer.

He wanted peace of mind and resale value, which are not Ford hallmarks.

Very true, resale on Fords is pants! Jap cars are much better.

The Americans make for cheap fun used cars though!
